| 6 | |
| 7 | ### Django Models & ORM |
| 8 | |
| 9 | - Model definition with field types, constraints, and indexes |
| 10 | - `Meta` class configuration (ordering, indexes, constraints, unique_together) |
| 11 | - Custom model managers and querysets |
| 12 | - QuerySet API (`filter`, `exclude`, `annotate`, `aggregate`, `select_related`, `prefetch_related`) |
| 13 | - F expressions and Q objects for complex queries |
| 14 | - Database functions and expressions |
| 15 | - Model signals (`pre_save`, `post_save`, `pre_delete`, `post_delete`) |
| 16 | - Abstract base models and model inheritance |
| 17 | - Custom model fields |
| 18 | - Multi-database routing |
| 19 | - Raw SQL when ORM is insufficient |
| 20 | - Database transactions and atomic operations |
| 21 | |
| 22 | ### Django REST Framework |
| 23 | |
